1 Indian 741B Indian motorcycles were manufactured from 1901 to 1953 by a company in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA. Indian's most popular models were the Scout, made from 1920 to 1946, and the Chief, made from 1922 to 1953 Both were used in small numbers for various purposes by the United States Army in World War II, and extensively by overseas Commonwealth military forces under the Lend-Lease Program The kit contains many small parts, extra care is needed to remove them from sprues, connectors (gates) are sometimes quite big to avoid production filling issues, a little razor blade will help greatly in this case, and also a new sharp scalpel blade is very useful. Read through the assembly guide before you start your build. The kit contains PE spokes for wheels, these are very easy to shape with help of the tool included in the kit, during assembly these are just to place between plastic wheels halves, as shown further, it is very primitive job. Few more PE detailing parts are supplied with the kit, they are optional to be used or not. Another small PE set is available from LZ Models, but their parts are just to replace plastic parts supplied in the kit if super detailed result is wanted. 2 resin bags are also included in their set, should you want to replace these in our kit. This assembly guide will refer to all PE parts which can be used to finish the Indian kit, but feel free to use them or leave them. Images in rows one by one show usually one small assembly step, or just show previously finished step from another angle and better view - in that case they are without part numbers Assembly Prepare PE spokes. First of all use candle or lighter and heat up PE sheet for a couple of seconds properly - it will remove metal tension and soften it - if you dont, thin PE spokes could crack and break Place first part F1(front right) in tool I64, side with etched details facing always bottom of the tool. Secure PE part with ring I65 and hold it tight. Use suitable rod with flat end - pencil, pen, plastic rod or so - and slowly and carefully bit by bit push center of PE part down until it reaches bottom - that will form spokes into shape required. Make sure that center of PE wiring remains nicely flat. Repeat with part F2(front left) R1 (rear left) and R2 (rear right). Front wheel has smaller hub on the left side, while rear wheel has smaller hub of the right side with drive chain. Front wheel PE wiring suitable rod, pen, pencil with flat end or so Glue together 2x parts +Z1, place shaped F1, then Z3, then F2 (make sure etched marks correspond for correct position of wires), and finally secure whole assembly with part. You might need to adjust hole in Z3 - drill 1,1mm diameter through I65 I64 Z1 etched marks Z3 Rear wheel Glue together 2x parts +Z1, place shaped R1, then Z3, then R2 (make sure etched marks correspond for correct position of wires), and finally secure whole assembly with part.
